The cottage
displayed in the next-to-last image is
where the movie "Beaches"
was filmed
[starring Bette Midler, a real tear-jerker.]

I love Crystal Cove. The area where these cottages are located is known as the
Historic district. The cottages are now abandoned.
The State kicked out the people who lived here. This is State land.Wendy
lived here for 6 months.

Crystal Cove is ~3 miles long: perfect length for a good run [up & back
roundtrip = 6 miles]
I try to imagine what it would be like to live here: paradise.
